~10 min read 1,914 words

"Dad, have you thought about it? Move over."

"Okay, since you all asked me to go over, don't go back on your word."

Gu Qing said and glanced at Gu Die.

It was the first time Gu Die asked him to move over to live. If he didn't speak, he wouldn't go to live there no matter what, even if he wanted to.

His time was running out, and he also wanted to stay by Gu Die's side properly and see him more.

"Move over today, how about that?"

Liuli asked. She understood Gu Qing's mood. It was the last time, of course, he wanted to accompany his child.

Whether the misunderstanding couldn't be resolved, or Gu Die wouldn't forgive him, the most important thing was companionship.

"Yes, today!"

Zihan also followed Liuli's lead.

"Alright then, I'll send someone to get my luggage."

Gu Qing agreed.

The dinner was all cooked according to Gu Qing's preferences.

"Dad, eat some vegetables."

Liuli only cared about picking food for Gu Qing, while Gu Die was eating silently with his head down. Liuli hadn't picked food for him yet.

"Okay, you don't need to worry about me."

Gu Qing answered with a smile.

"Cousin, eat some vegetables!"

Zihan saw that Gu Die was a bit neglected, so she picked food for him.

Liuli's attention then shifted from Gu Qing to Gu Die and Zihan.

Zihan signaled her to look at Gu Die and pick food for him, otherwise, his cold face would be like an ice cube again.

"You like meat, eat more."

Liuli picked several large pieces of beef into his bowl.

Gu Die's face stopped being cold instantly. He liked meat, but how did she know?

Was she paying attention to him? Gu Die felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart.

It was just picking some food, seeing Gu Die's happy look, Zihan couldn't stand it anymore.

Gu Die and Zihan both finished eating, while Liuli and Gu Qing were still eating.

Both of them were very confused, why was Liuli eating so slowly again?

Gu Qing ate slower than Gu Die, slowly and methodically. Liuli was just eating while waiting for Gu Qing to finish his meal.

Looking up, she saw Gu Die and Zihan staring at her. She reached out and touched her face, there was no dirt, but the two of them were still looking at her, so she took a tissue and wiped her mouth.

She wiped her mouth, but the two of them were still staring at her.

"Hey, you two, why are you staring at me?!"

Liuli couldn't hold it in anymore and asked directly. Gu Qing was so scared by her tone that he stopped eating.

"No!"

Zihan explained hurriedly.

"What about you, why are you staring at me?"

Liuli asked Gu Die. Staring at her felt inexplicable.

"Can't I watch?"

Gu Die joked.

"Looking for a beating!"

Liuli said and gripped the chopsticks in her hand tightly.

"Eat quickly!"

Seeing the situation wasn't right, Gu Die touched her head.

The head-touching kill, Liuli couldn't resist it.

Gu Qing was like a kind old father, looking at the two of them.

Time passed very quickly. It had been almost a week since Gu Qing moved over. During these days, Liuli, Zihan, and Gu Die had been accompanying him at home.

Gu Die didn't want to stay at home, and he didn't know why Liuli insisted on him staying at home.

Liuli thought, even if the two of them didn't speak, at least they could see each other every day. She didn't know how much time Gu Qing had left.

She didn't want both of them to have regrets.

Liuli, Zihan, and Gu Qing, although they were staying at home, were already quietly preparing a birthday party for Gu Die.

Tomorrow was Gu Die's birthday. She didn't know what to give him, and she didn't know about holding a birthday party.

Actually, for so many years, Gu Die hadn't held a birthday party, and no one had celebrated his birthday, not even Gu Qing.

In the past, Gu Qing was afraid Gu Die wouldn't accept it, and it would be an empty celebration. Now that he had Liuli, it was different.

Liuli hadn't been involved in birthday parties. She had only attended Cheng Li's birthday party, and only once. She didn't like places with too many people, so later when it was Cheng Li's birthday, they didn't hold a birthday party, just called Liuli and her grandmother to eat at home.

Gu Die's birthday party was all handled by Gu Qing. This was the first time, and maybe the last time, he was celebrating his birthday.

Liuli understood him, so she didn't interfere with the birthday party. This was the gift he wanted to give Gu Die.

Liuli and Zihan just went to help and make suggestions.

"Liuli, have you prepared a gift for Cousin?"

In the evening, Zihan asked Liuli to go to the rooftop to blow in the wind.

"Not yet. You don't tell me what he likes, how can I pick a gift?"

"Buy whatever! He likes whatever you buy. You aren't afraid of spending money, are you?"

"Me? Am I that stingy?"

"You are! Cousin already gave you an unlimited card, buy whatever you want. You still want to save money for him?"

Zihan envied Liuli. Gu Die even gave her an unlimited card. She could buy cars and houses as she pleased.

"I just want to give him a special gift."

"Then what have you thought of giving him?"

"Do you think it's okay if I give myself to him?"

Liuli smiled.

"You are already his!"

"I am not!"

"Then are you mine?"

"I am Chu Liuli's!"

"Pfft! Despise you!"

Liuli really didn't know what gift to give him. Thinking carefully, she really didn't know what Gu Die liked.

This person kept a cold face every day and didn't seem interested in anything. It was really hard to guess, and she didn't know what to give him even more.

Early the next morning, Zihan mysteriously pulled Liuli into the walk-in closet.

She saw a wedding dress inside.

"This is?"

Liuli was a bit confused.

"Try it on, see if it fits, and if you like it."

"Prepared for me?"

Liuli was stunned looking at the wedding dress. She and Gu Die only got a marriage certificate. Although she was married, she hadn't worn a wedding dress yet. Of course, she, like other girls, would imagine the day she wore a wedding dress.

"Of course, I knew you wouldn't prepare clothes, so I prepared it for you in advance."

"But, this is to attend a birthday party, not to get married."

"I just think it looks good and suits you, can't I? I also prepared other clothes! Go try on the wedding dress first! Go quickly!"

Liuli had no choice but to try on the wedding dress.

It fit unexpectedly well, as if it were custom-made for her.

Seeing how beautiful she looked in the wedding dress, Zihan's mouth couldn't close from surprise.

"Missing a necklace!"

Seeing Liuli's beautiful collarbone without a necklace, Zihan hurriedly picked a necklace for her.

Sure enough, after putting on the necklace, Liuli's temperament improved a lot.

This necklace, this wedding dress, seemed to be meant for her, Chu Liuli; no one else would fit it.

"Liuli, isn't it too beautiful?!"

Zihan said, her eyes fixed on Liuli. This wedding dress just matched Liuli's cold temperament.

"Really?"

Liuli didn't quite believe it.

"See for yourself!"

Zihan pulled her in front of the mirror.

In the mirror, she was exactly the same as the her who imagined wearing a wedding dress.

"It fits quite well."

Liuli smiled.

"Of course! This is..."

Zihan stopped talking as she spoke.

"What is it?"

Liuli was curious about what she was going to say next.

"Nothing, take it off first, I'll have you wear it when it's time, go try on the evening dress!"

Zihan hurriedly changed the subject.

Liuli obediently went to try on the evening dress.

The black evening dress made her look mature and noble, and with Liuli's cold temperament, she looked like a noble daughter.

Zihan nodded with satisfaction and picked a pair of shoes for her.

"What are you wearing?"

"Me? I have one too!"

Zihan said proudly. This was the evening dress Gu Die gave her, so she couldn't be prouder.

Maybe except for Liuli, she was the second person to be given clothes by Gu Die. Zihan felt happy just thinking about it.

This Gu Die was still reliable. When he customized the evening dress for Liuli, he also customized one for her. It seemed he didn't have no existence of her, Lao Zihan, in his eyes, just that his face was stinky, but he was a good person.

Speaking of which, this was a surprise prepared by Gu Qing, Zihan, and Liuli for Gu Die, but unexpectedly, Zihan let it slip to Gu Die without paying attention.

Since Liuli wanted to celebrate his birthday and was so worried about his birthday party, he was quite looking forward to this birthday. This was also the first birthday he spent with her.

They just got a marriage certificate simply at the beginning, without even holding a wedding.

He always felt it wasn't complete.

He thought, Liuli was also a girl, and girls should all imagine having a romantic wedding.

Marriage is a lifetime matter, he didn't want Liuli to have regrets.

Therefore, he asked Zihan to help him cooperate, and at the birthday party, he would propose to Liuli.

A formal proposal.

And this time, he would make up a wedding for her.

It was originally a surprise for him, but now it had become a surprise for her.

Zihan was excited when she heard about the proposal. She knew that at the beginning, Liuli was just someone Gu Die found casually, and she didn't expect the two of them to fall in love sincerely.

She was happy for them from the bottom of her heart.

Gu Die, who was so cold, would also be warm to someone. She hoped they could both be like this and be happy forever.

Zihan hurriedly changed into the evening dress and came out, still thinking about how she almost let it slip just now, and it was good that Liuli didn't think too much.

Zihan's evening dress was white. It seemed Gu Die knew she liked white.

Zihan felt that she wasn't so invisible in front of Gu Die, and Gu Die wasn't so cold to her.

It was just that it was still worse than towards Liuli.

"Eat."

Gu Die knocked on the door outside.

"Coming!"

Liuli was startled. She couldn't let him see her and Zihan dressed like this, otherwise, wouldn't everything be exposed.

Zihan and Liuli changed into their clothes and came out, as if nothing had happened.

Zihan even secretly gave Gu Die a gesture, and Liuli didn't notice.

"Dad, good morning!"

"Uncle, good morning!"

Gu Die looked at Liuli and Zihan coldly. These two, even though he was there, why didn't they say good morning to him?

After Gu Qing came, he felt he had become more like air.

"Good morning!"

Gu Qing smiled.

Since moving over, Gu Qing had been full of smiles, and the servants of the Gu house felt he was like a different person, completely different from before. ===== CHAPTER 49 =====
